U15 Girls: Dingle 4 v 4 Samphires (Scorers: Erin Harty (3), Emma Dennehy)
The u15 girls continued their season with a trip out to the Gaeltacht of West Kerry. The match was delicately poised at half time with The score 1-1. However, Dingle with a strong wind behind them began to take control of the match in the 2nd half and deservedly moved into a 4-1 lead with less than 10 mins to go. However, we showed great resilience, upping our tempo, and scored 3 late goals to pull off the most dramatic of comebacks. Well done all and thanks to Dingle for a a very sporting match. Scorers for Samphires were Erin Harty x3 and Emma Dennehy

Our B team narrowly lost out to Athletic in Fenit last Sunday morning. It was close throughout with both teams having periods of dominance. We were quite good in the firsst half and somehow found ourselves trailing after 20 minutes. We equalized 10 minutes later whem Liam Burns scored after a well timed run onto a lovely throughball from Luke Dillon. Again 5 minutes later, we were unsure in defence and conceded another. soft one Luke scored for us again on the stroke of half time to get us back level. A late penalty by Athletic in the 2nd half, which was box to box, gave them the victory, but well done to our boys too who did their best till the end.
U14 Boys: Samphires B v Milltown
U13 Girls: 2 v 4 Inter Kenmare A (Scorers: Fiadh, Eimear)
Well done to the u13 girls yesterday. It was not our day against a very good and physically strong Inter Kenmare team. It’s important not to forget that some of our girls are still u12 and are applying themselves brilliantly when they step up a grade. Two great goals by Fiadh and Eimear with an all round massive team effort was very heartening to see. There are plenty of good results ahead of us this season! Final score was 2-4 to Kenmare.
U12 Boys: Dingle A 2 v 4 Samphires A
Our premier campaign got off to a great start on a wet and windy Tuesday evening in Dingle. After a blistering start which saw us 3 up at half time with 2 goals from Cian O’Sullivan and a great finish from Eoghan Gilligan we faced a much tougher challenge in the second half. Into a gale force wind a battling Dingle Bay Rovers fought back to make it 3-2 until Cian O’Sullivan completed his hatrick 2 mins from the end to give our lads a well earned victory. The courage, determination and teamwork shown by these boys was immense and every member of the squad dug deep for what was a superb victory. Well done boys🟢⚫️
